Spent the day doing crevasse rescue practice with a guide on mont blanc massif at 3400m. Great conditions at the moment

We're on the ferry to the UK then driving down to Italy (Courmayeur) for two weeks mountainerring in the Alps

In chilly Oslo, where your money soon burns a hole in your pocket: a beer costs 10 euro and a steak around 80!! Crazy!

Climbed 10 summits in the reeks today, all over 900m. This completes our list of 900m summits in Ireland. Great day, 20km distance and over 1900m of ascent. Now cooking on the BBQ by the tent
